Love 'em. Installation was Very easy and they gave me everything I needed, except a few zip ties.
If you have an 89+ car with 4 wheel disks you should not need the rears, 82-88 had the small rear disks.
Doing the rear brakes was a chore because you have to pull the axel shafts. (gets messy) I installed mine when I went to TPI, had to drop the rear axel, anyway, made it really convienent.
Baer will send you some templates to check and see what brakes you can use. I wanted to use the 13" on the front, but because I had the 16" Stock rims, I needed about another 1/4" to make them fit.

I was scared to drive my car BEFORE I changed over to the BAER brakes if that helps. I can really STOP now.
Way I had it figured, stopping is more important than going.
